Some called for more police walking the streets, while others said the city should instead direct resources toward community services

Los Angeles police are continuing to search for the gunman who fatally shot a man outside Grand Central Market over the weekend, sparking panic among patrons in a chaotic scene caught on video at the popular food hall downtown.

The well-known dining hall has been a downtown landmark for years, attracting thousands of customers a day to a variety of restaurants featuring dishes from around the world.Nick Previsich, a downtown resident for the past 11 years, said in an interview with The Times that the shooting confirmed his view that an “anything goes” attitude had taken hold among some people he described as “outsiders” to L.A.'s downtown scene.

“I’ll work closely with LAPD command to get officers on the ground to stop these crimes before they happen,” De León said.LAPD Officer Michael Silva says he has been left with a feeling of “being in between” this year — commiserating with protesters and his fellow officers, and being judged by both.
